Editorial guide

This reading edition follows the reviewed Greek-English translation of Rahlfs–Hanhart’s 2006 text. Source chapter and verse labels are retained, including the additional Greek list at 5:16a. Source 19:1 corresponds to common English 18:33; source 19:2–44 corresponds to common English 19:1–43. Square or double brackets retain source or translation qualifications.

The comparison volume presents the independently reviewed Hebrew and Greek translations with their differences, source notes, and attributed reception. The reading here preserves the Greek’s own sequence, agents, names, quantities, and unresolved constructions.

The following textual and reception notes use the same source numbering. Textual observations, Rashi’s interpretations, Augustine’s readings, apostolic reuse, and editorial Christian comparisons remain distinct. Unresolved critical questions and inaccessible evidence are disclosed in the source register.
